The rise of multi-core processors has shifted performance efforts towards parallel programs. However, single-threaded code, whether from legacy programs or ones difficult to para...
A full exploitation of the computational power available in a multi-core platform requires the software to be specified in terms of parallel execution flows. At the same time, mode...
—Distributed file systems that use multiple servers to store data in parallel are becoming commonplace. Much work has already gone into such systems to maximize data throughput....
